Welcome to Altrincham and Sale

Meet Jo, the editor for Altrincham and Sale

Hi, I’m Jo, the editor of Raring2go! Altrincham & Sale.

Having lived in Sale since 2003 and now raising my two children, i’m always amazed by how much Altrincham and Sale has to offer for families – there is always something happening! We’re always discovering new places to go to with the children in Altrincham and Sale and I look forward to sharing these with you on this website and in the magazine.

The magazine has a print run of 10,000 and is produced four times a year – Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter – and is distributed free through primary schools, nurseries, toddler groups & classes, soft play centres,  libraries, leisure centres, cafes and other appropriate venues across the area.

Before I took on Raring2go! Altrincham & Sale myself, I received it through my own children’s school book bags, and always saw it as my ‘bible’ on things to do in the area (as well as a source of fantastic special deals – both national and local – and money-saving vouchers). I think that’s a testament to the great job done by Linda (the previous editor), and I aim to keep it just as full of great ideas and useful listings to keep your family entertained throughout the year.

We’re lucky to have some fantastic businesses in the Altrincham & Sale area … I’m a strong believer in shopping local and supporting our home-grown companies, and will be working hard to make Raring2go! Altrincham & Sale the best place to showcase all the family-friendly activities, attractions, clubs, classes, party providers, restaurants, shops and cafes and more on offer in our area. So if there’s anything you’d like to particularly recommend and share with fellow families please get in touch and let me know on altrinchamandsale@raring2go.co.uk …  And when you do discover a local business through our magazine or website, please make sure you mention Raring2go!

If you’re a local business looking to reach local families then this is the guide to be in and the website to be on, so please contact me and have a chat about what you do and how we can help to promote it to local people. You can load your activity or event directly onto our website free of charge, and tell people what you are offering and when and where it is taking place. For more details please give me a call on 07766 991935, or email altrinchamandsale@raring2go.co.uk

I look forward to hearing from you, and hope you find Raring2go! as useful as I did!
